Or, even use PowerHouse on HP-UX with Eloquence. Cognos is readying a version that will do that. My understanding is that the next version for HP-UX (8.43x) and the next version for Windows (8.41x) should be able to access Eloquence natively -- just a couple of changes in the PDL dictionary, a recompile, and it goes. Might be an option for some.
